Post-secondary students in North Battleford and Meadow Lake will benefit thanks to an upcoming partnership with the University of Regina.
The school and North West College announced they have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on the joint delivery of a community-based Bachelor of Social Work degree program.
“Through our collective vision to bridge the gap between urban and rural communities by providing accessible education, this collaboration will not only expand opportunities for our students but also address the pressing need for qualified social workers in our region,” said Dr. Eli Ahlquist, President and CEO of North West College.
“The University of Regina is excited to be working with North West College to make our Bachelor of Social Work program more accessible to students who will be able to complete their Social Work degree in or near their home communities in the region,” added Dr. Jeff Keshen, President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Regina.
